GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Your ovaries play a critical role in both menstruation and conception. They produce eggs for fertilization and they make the hormones estrogen and progesterone. An ovary releases an egg around the middle of your menstrual cycle (around day 14 of a 28-day cycle) in a process called ovulation.

Detailed explanation-2: -The menstrual cycle is regulated by hormones. Luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone, which are produced by the pituitary gland, promote ovulation and stimulate the ovaries to produce estrogen and progesterone.

Detailed explanation-3: -Ovaries make eggs and hormones like estrogen and progesterone. These hormones help girls develop, and make it possible for a woman to have a baby. The ovaries release an egg as part of a woman’s cycle. When an egg is released, it’s called ovulation.

Detailed explanation-4: -What do the ovaries do? The ovaries have two main reproductive functions in the body. They produce oocytes (eggs) for fertilisation and they produce the reproductive hormones, oestrogen, progesterone and androgens.

Detailed explanation-5: -Ovary stores the produced eggs in it and later releases an egg during ovulation. Ovary acts as an endocrine gland and produces hormones that control the menstrual cycle and pregnancy. The main function of the ovary is to produce the ovum and secrete female sex hormones.
